IMPORTANT QUESTION: Exactly WHO is your ADSL provider ?
...One of the Bell companies ....or a CLEC .... or an ISP (UUNet, MCI, etc)
????
No excuse for spotty service with this technology......this indicates
infrastructure problems with their gear at the switching station. There is
absolutely no reason why ADSL cannot support streaming data for realtime
trading.
BTW: what bandwidth of ADSL did you order ? (256, 512, 768, 1.2 meg, etc)
Which ADSL adapter are you using ? (3Com, Motorola, ...)
